Story

Assignment: To develop a story with twists and turns involving one person waiting, one person traveling, and a package that is arriving for one of the two people. 

1 person traveling: ordinary delivery man

1 person waiting: sharp guy in a nice suit

package for waiting person: 

Concept: The story starts out with a delivery man about to get done with his shift in upstate New York. He is an ordinary man whose job is not all that exciting. It has been a day on the job just like any other day so the delivery man is not expecting much. He is ready to return home to his wife from a long day at work. He has a small envelope that has the address 10601 South Tripp on it. He makes his way to Tripp Street and he arrives at a huge mansion. As he is walking up the steps he finds himself admiring the wealth and sophisticated aspects of the mansion and he starts to wonder if it was perhaps someone famous who lives there. He rings the doorbell and a man with a pin-stripped Armani suit answers the door. The delivery man hands him the envelope. Without even opening the envelope, the sharply dressed man at the door says "Today is your lucky day." The delivery guy is kind of thrown off and asks "Why?" The man at the door says "I have a package arriving in 3 days to this address. I'll give you and extra $500 on the spot if you delivery the package after your shift late at night so no one will see you." The delivery man asks "What's in the package?" The man responds "I can't tell you because it will put both of our lives in danger." Now the delivery guy knows there is something weird and wrong going on. However, he also feels that his job is so uninteresting that this could be a chance to spice it up. The delivery man is kind of upset with himself because he feels like he has underachieved for the better part of his adult life. The delivery man has always been kind of a risk taker and it has been a while since he got the opportunity to take one. The man at the door slaps a $100 bill in the delivery man's hands and asks "Are you in?" The delivery man thinks for a couple of seconds and says "Yes." He leaves the mansion and goes home to his wife. He does not let anyone know of the events to come. 3 nights later, the delivery man returns to the mansion with a package. He has tried really hard to keep himself from opening the package. He rings the doorbell and the same man answers the doorbell. He hands him the package and gets the $500 from him. (I'm still working on the ending of the story.)
